How to Optimize Your LinkedIn Profile!

LinkedIn

Creating a LinkedIn Profile is very important to start your career. You can’t create a profile and leave it for a few days. And hope your dream job will pop up in your news feed. You should take a picture of yourself in business attire or a nice button-up shirt. Don’t overdo it just be yourself. You should sell yourself with a good headline and update it weekly. Your headline usually attaches visitors to view your profile. Your resume is your story about what you have accomplished in your career. Your resume is what tells your potential employers what you can bring to the table.

LinkedIn has become a way for companies to find new talent. You should display your work on your LinkedIn if you are a graphic or web designer. This is how people build brands for themselves and grow their professional network. You should add an old classmate who could lead you to a job. You should find an old coworker you worked well with and ask him or her to write you a recommendation. LinkedIn recommendations show your potential employer whether you will be a good fit for their company. Writing articles on LinkedIn can show that you have expertise in performing that task.
